Murano of Brazil
This is one of my favorite art glass pieces from Brazil.
The Murano Artisans of Brazil have been featured in magazines ranging from In Style to Natural Health.
Many Italians immigrated to Brazil in the early 20th century, including families from the island of Murano near Venice. Antonio Carlos, a leading art glass designer in Brazil, was taught directly by Aldo Bonora, the first Italian master to arrive in Brazil from Murano Island.
The vase's unique design takes it's form from an inverted handkerchief. designed by Murano artisans of Brazil.
With talent and courage they present uniquely styled works of art. With a flare for using liberal colors and fascinating contours which characterize this style. Today, they are dedicated mostly to exclusive decorative items in home decor. They create original designs and colors, intended for the most demanding public that appreciates Murano glass artistry.
